Budget Plan Proposes New Custodial Post at Aiken Shelter
Budget staff propose adding a custodial position at the Aiken County Animal Shelter with a 30000 to 35000 salary range. The plan is part of a broader budget that totals about 700000 more than the current year yet avoids tax increases. Fuel costs loom as a major risk to departments including the sheriff, EMS, and Public Works.
